The Doctor: I wish I had known you better.
Father Octavian: I think, sir, that you know me at my best.

—Doctor Who

Bill: How do I look?
Beatrix: You look ready.

—Kill Bill

No point asking when it is,
No point asking who's to go,
No point asking what's the game,
No point asking who's to blame,
'Cos if you're gonna die, if you're gonna die,
If you're gonna die, if you're gonna die,
If you're gonna die, die with your boots on...

—Iron Maiden, "Die With Your Boots On"

Rebecca Adler: I just want to die with a little dignity.
Dr. Gregory House: There's no such thing! Our bodies break down, sometimes when we're 90, sometimes before we're even born, but it always happens and there's never any dignity in it! I don't care if you can walk, see, wipe your own ass... it's always ugly, always! You can live with dignity; you can't die with it!

—House, episode 1

Jerry: Can't you at least die with a little dignity?
George: No, I can't! I can't die with dignity! I have no dignity! I want to be the one person who doesn't die with dignity!
I live my whole life in shame! Why should I die with dignity?

—Seinfeld

How awesome would Darth Vader’s death scene really be if, after his heroic sacrifice, he spent his last few moments screaming “The force lightning! It BUUUURNS! This is the worst pain IMAGINABLE!! Luke, would you stop sitting there like a nerf herder and get your old man some freaking MORPHINE?!”

—Overthinking Cowboy Bebop: Sessions 21-22

There is nothing proper about what you are doing, soldier, but do try to kill me properly.

—last words of Cicero (attributed)

Shepard: "Mordin, I'm sorry..."
Mordin: "I'm not. Had to be me... Someone else might have gotten it wrong."

—Mass Effect 3

"I have no illusions of the future. Or maybe it's all illusion. I don't know. I've always been ready for it."

—Gord Downie, The Globe and Mail, "The Gord Downie legend: Canadiana's barstool bard has a lasting legacy of enigmatic erudition", a year and a half before he died from the cancer that he knew he had
